difficult to believe, that will be the case for all over Gerany, especialyy with its past. Everyone is waiting for the decision of the federal court on how to continue. BTW, the Jewish hospital is only the name of the hospital, it is not a Jewish one!

The Jewish Hospital in Berlin is displaying a shamefully defeatist attitude. Can't the German Jews and Germans generally learn from the history and stand up against unjust law? After all the state district judge (Cologne) misguided and moronic decision has no legal effect in Berlin. Furthermore, the Jewish religious circumcisions are not taking place in the hospitals, so their misguided announcement should not have any effect meantime. Just, it shows how coward they are...

Physically And Figuritively!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The terms of the Allies restoring German independence in 1953, ending the occupation after the war, included eradicating and ending persecution of Jews that was a Nazi hallmark. I am sure that Germans agree that they have to find a way to nullify the dishonest and illegal ruling of this corrupt Cologne court, just as they agree that one Dresden was enough. And for the record, the judge and his Passau law school side-kick were completely mistaken. Jewish practice is not about circumcision, it specifically about circumcizing newborn males on the eighth day of life. Outlawing this outlaws Judaism. And as any doctor will tell you, circumcizing males as adults is a far more serious, dangerous and painful procedure than circumcizing infants, who have undeveloped blood and nerve supply to the foreskin tissues. There is centuries of history that shows infant circumcision to be a safe procedure. These two jackasses were trying to devise a scheme to outlaw and end Judaism, not to merely "move circumcision to adulthood". The basis for the ruling was legally unsould to begin with. I think every German knows that trying to enforce it would trigger all-out war with the world Jewish community, as well as with one billion Muslims. There has not been much reaction so far, because we are all confident Germany will fix this anomaly and remove this inept judge. They had better.

A Jewish boy ,born in Germany, that should be circumcised already the seventh day he was born, is he still waiting for the "things" to be clarified? Or has he been send to France or Israel in the meantime ?

which every must adhere to; like Shabbat.

This is nothing less than a revision of the policies of hitler. Also of Antiochus and Constantine and all the poops. The world hates the Jews and we better keep our eyes open! History is repeating itself throughout the world. Anti-semitism is rampant and is growing stronger every day. It happened in 70 ad. Jews are returning home and Rome is angry and trying to revive the old palestinian lie. Be vigilant Israel!!!!!!

Tell ya a big secret, doctor: Jewishness is in culture, in person's brain and soul; not in a foreskin, not in genes, not in religion. Many children born in the 1940's from Jewish parents in Europe have not been circumcised due to the war, and in order to improve their survival chances. They live today in the U.S., in Israel, in many European countries also. Before that, children from Jewish parents who escaped from Red Russia to China have also avoided circumcision. They live today all over the world. A piece of skin, on or off the pin, does not set your kin, gam im harofe lo mevin.

Next, we must force those racist Germans to allow female genital mutiliation, after all it is in the name of freedom of religion as well, isn't it?!

because of circumstances , Today we have'nt to fear such things , to flee or to hide our Jewishness . Brith mila is also a part of this culture , not only religion . Why do you think that many atheists in Israel heve their boys circumcised ? it's our culture . I'll tell you something , i was arrested in 1944 , all the boys in this home had to let their throusers down , and the germans saw who was Jewish ....
